Chapter 99 Conditions for Attracting Magicians

"Payment in installments?" Steele touched his already bulging belly, thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, this is indeed Xu Yi's idea for President Cruise... What? Are you excited?"

Akali glanced at Evita and nodded: "Well, I think this is a good idea. You see, if the payment is divided into ten years, then only five hundred gold coins need to be paid each year. Evita and I are currently one year. The income is about 800 to 1,000 gold coins, so I can fully afford it."

"That's true." Steele turned to Evita. "What do you think?"

Evita frowned slightly and seemed a little embarrassed.

"Although our current annual income can indeed afford 500 gold coins, but... it is not certain that we can have such a high income every year. If there is any problem in the future and cannot pay the subsequent payment, according to the agreement, this The house is about to be repossessed by the Amley Chamber of Commerce, and the Amley Chamber of Commerce will not refund us."

"What are you so worried about?" Akali snorted: "Are you still worried that we will lose our jobs? Or are you worried that the new pilot company will go bankrupt?"

Evita glanced at Akali helplessly, this guy, in front of Steele, actually said that the New Flying Chamber of Commerce would go bankrupt, it was a slip of the tongue. "Look, Steele said it, why don't we make up our minds?" Akali quickly encouraged Evita. "Just think about it, just buy the house there. We can live in such a beautiful environment in the future, how happy we are every day."

Evita still shook her head: "You also forgot an important question. Our daily work is in the Valley of Falling Rain, which is 60 kilometers away from Bangta City. Will we still be able to do two jobs every day in the future? Is the bus going back and forth twice an hour?"

"There's no need to worry about it. We are not developing a private small magic locomotive for personal use. When the time comes, we will buy one each and drive the magic locomotive back every day, Dorafeng." Akali said excitedly.

Steele looked at Evita, who was still a little hesitant, and hesitated for a moment: "Why don't you do it like this. Evita. If you and Akali are worried that it is not safe to make installments to the Amri Chamber of Commerce, I will borrow it first. I'll give it to you. In the future, you will pay it back to me slowly, just like paying in installments. But you should always be at ease with me, right?" Steele smiled slightly. She pinched Akali's face and looked at Evita again: "Evita, what about you? We are old classmates and old friends, you don't have to be polite to me."

Evita took a deep look at Steele, glanced over her bulging belly, and looked around. Finally, looking at Steele, he slowly shook his head.

"No, I'm not as interested in this house as Akali."

"Why? It's okay to borrow some money from Steele, right? It's not like we can't pay it back. Besides..."

Akali's words were just halfway through when Steele covered her hand.

"Since Evita is unwilling, then forget it. But I believe that with Evita's ability, you may be able to earn 5,000 gold coins a year in the future, and you don't need to consider any installments at that time, right?"…

Evita chuckled: "I hope so. But it depends on whether the president will be so generous."

"Oh? When am I not being generous?" Xu Yi's voice suddenly sounded at the door.

The three of them turned their heads and looked at each other, and saw that Xu Yi walked in with Bella, Claire and Cecilia from behind.

"Hey, Steele, your belly has grown a lot again." Bella rushed directly to Steele as soon as she came in, staring at her stomach and exclaiming loudly.

Claire and Cecilia also squeezed past. Put down the gift in your hand. The discussion surrounding Steele pointedly at her bulging belly, but directly pushed aside the topic that Steele and the three discussed just now.

Looking at the appearance of several women crowding together and chatting. Xu Yi shook his head and went straight to tell Liz and Linda to start preparing lunch.

Today, Evita, Steele's old classmates, made a special appointment to visit her, but they had to be entertained.

Just after walking out of the living room, footsteps sounded behind him, and when he looked back, Akara dragged Evita and chased him out.

"What? Is there something wrong?" Xu Yi asked with a smile, seeing the slightly uneasy expression on Akali's face.

"This... it's not a big deal... Mr. President, Steele said just now..."

After Akali finished talking about what she had just discussed with Steele, Xu Yi laughed and waved her hand: "I think it's a big deal. Since Steele has promised you, of course I won't have any opinion. Don't say that you and Steele are good friends, it's normal to lend you some money just based on our relationship."

Akali immediately rushed over happily and hugged Xu Yi's arm, shaking it vigorously: "I knew that President President, you are the most generous. Oh, if only I knew you earlier than Steele. Now, I must catch you up, so that I don't have to worry about buying a house now. By the way, Mr. President, why don't I use my body to repay this debt? "

Xu Yi smiled and shook his head: "Okay, don't make such a joke, Steele is still inside."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Evita, intending to persuade her, but after thinking about it, he gave up.

Everyone's personality is different. Akali can readily accept the matter of borrowing money, but Evita is unwilling. This cannot be forced.

However, when the thoughts turned around in his mind, Xu Yi suddenly thought of a question and asked Evita: "By the way, Evita, I haven't asked about the recruitment of the Chamber of Commerce personnel for a long time. Now how many researchers are there in our Magic Research Institute? already?"

Evita was stunned by Xu Yi's sudden change in the topic, and after thinking about it, she replied, "There are currently 39 people in total. What's wrong?"

Xu Yi shook his head: "It's not growing fast. Last year, there were more than 300 people. This year, there are only 39 people. It's too few."

"Not a lot?" Akali said stunned: "Master President, even the magicians under the great magician Isenka are only less than 200. Our Chamber of Commerce can have more than 300, which is already very important. Scary."

"I still think it's too few. Don't you think you'll be understaffed when you do research?"

Akali and Evita thought for a while and nodded at the same time.

"Indeed... I've really wanted to add a few more assistants to myself recently, but everyone in the institute has their own research topics, so they can't be busy at all," Akali said.

Evita sighed: "Yes, the research tasks of the Magic Research Institute are very heavy now, and I still squeeze a lot of research and development tasks proposed by the Magic Machine Tool Research and Development Center, but I can't find enough suitable people to conduct research. If it could be two hundred more... it would be much better if there were a hundred more researchers.”…

"Then why do you think the other magicians are reluctant to work in our New Flying Chamber of Commerce?" Xu Yi asked again.

Evita and Akali looked at each other and replied, "It's not that I don't want to. After all, our New Flying Chamber of Commerce is already very famous, and many of our former classmates have asked us about the Chamber of Commerce. I I feel that many magicians are reluctant to come, probably because they don’t want to go to work in a strange city so far away, and I’m worried that the life here will be uncomfortable.”

"Look, this is a very important reason." Xu Yi clapped his hands. "The two of you have been working in our New Flying Chamber of Commerce for more than two years, and now you have to think about where to live in Bangta City, so it's no wonder that other magicians are worried about whether they can adapt after coming here. I think if If we can solve the problem of housing and life, and let the magicians who come to work in our chamber of commerce have no worries, there will definitely be many magicians who are willing to come."

Evita and Akali looked at Xu Yi inexplicably, thinking that this president's thinking is really jumping.

He was clearly talking about the two of them wanting to buy a house, how could he have thought of this?

Xu Yi ignored the strange expressions on the faces of the two, and after a moment of contemplation, he suddenly strode out.

After walking for two steps, he seemed to remember something, turned his head and told the two of them: "By the way, tell Steele for me, I have to go to see Grandpa in a hurry now, and I might not be able to make it at noon. I'm back for dinner, I hope you guys are having a good time here."

After saying that, he shook his hands at the two of them and turned around to leave.

The two stared blankly at Xu Yi getting on the carriage that was parked outside the manor, and disappeared into the distance like a gallop, and it took a while to react.

"Sir President, it's true, we all came to see Steele today, but his husband ran away, what's this..." Akali couldn't help muttering.

"He must have thought of something very important, otherwise he wouldn't have done it." Evita explained for Xu Yi.

Akali glanced at Evita, stretched out her hand to squeeze her cheek, and teased: "What? You are very protective of him, but unfortunately you are such a coward that you don't even dare to speak your mind, no matter what. It's no use defending him."

Evita rolled her eyes at her: "That's better than saying you have to pay off your debts with your body, right? What do you think of yourself? Isn't your self-esteem bad?"

Akali snorted nonchalantly, "I'm happy, you don't care!"

Evita shook her head helplessly, and pulled Akali into the house. )
